Liked: We received a very warm welcome and found our pitch very easily. The views were breathtaking and the walks from the site excellent. One path led down to the village beneath, where the pub had an excellent menu and a stream running behind the garden.

Liked: The campsite was clean and the view was great. There was an excellent pub (The Riverside) within 15 minutes walk of the site.
Disliked: Had to constantly press shower to make it work. One shower head x-threaded and meant a slight loss of power.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Despite the previous wet weather and rain while on site they let us know where we could camp and drive- all very supportive. When it stopped raining the site dried out quickly. Toilets and showers were always clean even though it was wet and muddy. Always piping hot water, clean and dry washing up area under cover. Washing and dryer but we didn’t use them on site. Wonderful site, lovely views, perfect position- couldn’t ask for more. Thank you
